Hello,
I'm new to the forum and would like some advise on which B&W center speaker would best match the new 804 diamonds. My choices are the HTM3s, new HTM4-diamond, or the new HTM2-diamond. It seems that the HTM3s may be a good match based on the configuration (3-way) and equivalent size of the drivers. Also, I can still purchase the HTM3s new. It represents the best value, considering the recent price increases associated with the alternatives. My only concern with this setup is combining the "standard" tweeter in the HTM3 center with the new diamond tweeters in the 804 fronts. Would this configuration work out, or would the difference be noticable and undesirable?
The new HTM4 diamond is obviously a viable choice but it still has only 1 combined mid-base driver. Will I get full, satisfying sound from the mid-base driver as compared to the full range of the 804's?
I believe the new HTM2 diamond would be a bit excessive (in size and cost) to combine with the 804's.
BTW, I'll be using 2 SCMs speakers for surround channels.
